St. Patrick’s Day is tomorrow, which in Columbus mostly means a day of getting pinched and a night of drinking green beer. If you’re not sure where to go, Columbus has a variety of Irish Pubs as well as regular bars with Irish-sounding names. There’s Brazenhead and Byrne’s near Grandview, Mac’s Cafe in the Short North, O’Shaughnessy’s in the Arena District, Callahan’s on Park Street, Claddagh’s and Tommy Keegan’s in the Brewery District, Patrick J’s at the southern tip of Clintonville, Fado at Easton, and McFadden’s at the South Campus Gateway, just to name a few.
Oh, and if your wardrobe is lacking in the green department, then you can always swing by Skreened in Clintonville and pick up a last minute St. Patty’s Day T-Shirt. Have fun, and be safe!
It’s not a comprehensive guide unless it also warns against wearing those stupid green plastic hats or any type of beads. If you do either, I will take your picture and post it on my blog under the heading “You Looked Like A Douche On St. Patrick’s Day.” It’s also far more authentically Irish to drink your Coors Lite with a scoop of ice in the glass than a squeeze of green dye.
I though it was pretty much common sense that silly hats look like silly hats. ;)
Oh… I also forgot about Callahan’s. Will add them up top.
The big stovepipe hats made to look like a pint of Guinness are silly. Green and white Cat In The Hat-style hats are silly. Green plastic bowler hats are not silly – they’re completely stupid and automatically earn the wearer my scorn and derision for the day.
I’m going to Harrison’s if anyone is up for $1.50 green beers.
